    Back to LA :-)

    At'sa right, I fly out on Saturday ;-) Week's holiday followed by four days of meetings, so the company pays for my flights! I'm still getting to grips with my new camera (see the 'In Japan' thread for why I have a new camera), but all should be good and piccies will go up mid-December. I'm...

    Question about the original airing of "A Muppet Family Christmas"

    I've recently obtained a copy of the original uncut airing of this special, and I was wondering about some things: After two of the commercial breaks, when the show resumes it starts off with a shot over which is superimposed the "MFC" title graphic. In the case of the first break, the...

    Back Home Again!

    Four flights, 10000 miles and almost $3000 later, I'm home :-) Well, actually, as I type this I'm 35000 feet above the USA heading - according to the flight map - 56° North-East. My knowledge of US geography isn't good enough to identify the state we're over, sorry... We're just about to...

    Coming to America!

    Atsa right, at unbelievably short notice I'm being sent to LA for a few days of meetings. BUT! As compensation for only asking (aka twisting my arm, aka "we're desperate, please say yes") me yesterday, my company has offered to send me out early if I want a few days holiday while I'm there...

    Emmet Otter on laserdisc

    Can anyone confirm or disprove the existence of this please? If it was released, it would have been around 20 years ago, which makes trying to find a copy very tricky :-)

    Rocky Mountain Holiday DVD

    As a couple of people have now confirmed, the DVD is cut. The scene where John cures Rowlf's hiccoughs by taking him for an aeroplane ride is missing entirely. The scene is backed by a piece of music, so it's possible that there was a clearance problem; however, this is just speculation on my...

    Fraggle/Buffy crossover?

    I was watching the UK edit of "The Day The Music Died" last night, and the postcard is Matt's visit to a football stadium. In the last shot of the segment, where Matt's joined the crowd with the red and white scarves, the man standing next to him looks down and smiles...and it's none other than...
